So if we were to lose Burrow or Chase for the season, don't come back on here whining about why they were injured in a meaningless game. I especially think it is a bad idea to put Burrow out there with Philly's D line.
They could get hurt in practice, too, should we cancel that? Burrow hurt his leg in camp last year.
It is football, there is always risk.
But we cannot afford to keep starting 0-2 every year. We have to be better prepared to hit the ground running. Plus, the coach knows his ass is grass if we miss the POs again.
Totally worth the risk. The first game cannot be the first time the starters play more than one series. We have seen how that movie ends. Six times. No thank you.
If someone gets hurt, then them's the breaks. But you have to do what is necessary to have the team ready on Day 1.
